NEW INFORMATION
---------------
* CHANGES TO WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- None
* CURRENT WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- A Tropical Storm Warning and Storm Surge Watch are in effect
for Chambers and Harris
- A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for Austin, Colorado,
Fort Bend, Liberty, Waller, and Wharton
- A Storm Surge Warning and Hurricane Warning are in effect for
Jackson and Matagorda
- A Storm Surge Warning and Tropical Storm Warning are in effect

- Storm Intensity 110 mph
- Movement Northwest or 315 degrees at 10 mph
SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------
Harvey has continued to strengthen this morning to a high-end category
2 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 110 mph. Harvey is
forecast to continue strengthening and will most likely become a major
hurricane today before it makes landfall along the Middle Texas Coast
later tonight. The primary impact from Harvey over Southeast Texas
remains prolonged significant heavy rainfall that will induce extreme
widespread flooding through at least the beginning of next week.
Tropical storm force winds, with occasional hurricane force wind gusts,
and storm surge will occur along the coast as early as this afternoon
and persist through Tuesday. Coastal flooding due to storm surge and
wave run up will remain an issue throughout the weekend and into the
beginning of next week as strong onshore winds will continue to pile
water up along the coastline. Again, the primary emphasis and greatest
threat to life and property will be the extreme rainfall amounts that
will likely lead to a potentially catastrophic and prolonged flash
flooding event.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------
* FLOODING RAIN:
Protect against life-threatening rainfall flooding having possible
devastating impacts across Southeast Texas, particularly along and
south of the I-10 corridor. Potential impacts include:
- Extreme rainfall flooding may prompt numerous evacuations and
rescues.
- Rivers and tributaries may overwhelmingly overflow their banks
in many places with deep moving water. Small streams, creeks,
canals, and ditches may become raging rivers. Flood control
systems and barriers may become stressed.
- Flood waters can enter numerous structures within multiple
communities, some structures becoming uninhabitable or washed
away. Numerous places where flood waters may cover escape
routes. Streets and parking lots become rivers of raging water
with underpasses submerged. Driving conditions become very
dangerous. Numerous road and bridge closures with some weakened
or washed out.
* SURGE:
Protect against life-threatening surge having possible devastating
impacts across the Upper Texas Coast. Potential impacts in
this area include:
- Widespread deep inundation, with storm surge flooding greatly
accentuated by powerful battering waves. Structural damage to
buildings, with many washing away. Damage greatly compounded
from considerable floating debris. Locations may be
uninhabitable for an extended period.
- Near-shore escape routes and secondary roads washed out or
severely flooded. Flood control systems and barriers may become
stressed.
- Extreme beach erosion. New shoreline cuts possible.
- Massive damage to marinas, docks, boardwalks, and piers.
Numerous small craft broken away from moorings with many lifted
onshore and stranded.
Also, protect against locally hazardous surge having possible limited
impacts across northern Galveston Bay and Trinity Bay.
* WIND:
Protect against life-threatening wind having possible devastating
impacts across Matagorda Bay from Port O`Connor to Sargent. Potential
impacts in this area include:
- Structural damage to sturdy buildings, some with complete roof
and wall failures. Complete destruction of mobile homes. Damage
greatly accentuated by large airborne projectiles. Locations
may be uninhabitable for weeks or months.
- Numerous large trees snapped or uprooted along with fences and
roadway signs blown over.
- Many roads impassable from large debris, and more within urban
or heavily wooded places. Many bridges, causeways, and access
routes impassable.
- Widespread power and communications outages.
Also, protect against life-threatening wind having possible limited
to extensive impacts across the rest of Southeast Texas.
* TORNADOES:
Protect against a tornado event having possible limited impacts
across Southeast Texas. Potential impacts include:
- The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the execution
of emergency plans during tropical events.
- A few places may experience tornado damage, along with power
and communications disruptions.
- Locations could realize roofs peeled off buildings, chimneys
toppled, mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned,
large tree tops and branches snapped off, shallow-rooted trees
knocked over, moving vehicles blown off roads, and small boats
pulled from moorings.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
----------------------------------
* EVACUATIONS:
For those under evacuation orders, leave as soon as practical with a
destination in mind. Gas up your vehicle well ahead of time. Be sure
that you take all essential materials from your emergency supplies kit.
Let others know where you are going and when you intend to arrive.
If evacuating the area, stick to prescribed evacuation routes. Look
for additional traffic information on roadway smart signs and listen to
select radio channels for further travel instructions. Drivers should
not use cell phones while operating vehicles.
For those not under evacuation orders, understand that there are
inherent risks to evacuation (such as traffic congestion, accidents,
and driving in bad weather), so evacuate only if necessary. Help keep
roadways open for those that are under evacuation orders.
If you are exceptionally vulnerable to wind or water hazards from
tropical systems, consider voluntary evacuation, especially if being
officially recommended. Relocate to a predetermined shelter or safe
destination.
If evacuating away from the area or relocating to a nearby shelter,
leave early before weather conditions become hazardous.
* OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION:
Now is the time to bring to completion all preparations to protect
life and property in accordance with your emergency plan.
Outside preparations should be wrapped up as soon as possible before
weather conditions completely deteriorate. Any remaining evacuations
and relocations should be expedited before the onset of tropical
storm force wind.
If you are relocating to safe shelter, leave as early as possible. If
heading to a community shelter, become familiar with the shelter
rules before arrival, especially if you have special needs or own a
pet. Take essential items with you from your Emergency Supplies Kit.
Check the latest weather forecast before departing.
Failure to adequately shelter may result in serious injury or loss of
life. Always heed the advice of local officials and comply with any
orders that are issued. Remember, during the storm 9 1 1 Emergency
Services may not be able to immediately respond if conditions are
unsafe. This should be a big factor in your decision making.
Check-in with your emergency points of contact among family, friends,
and workmates. Inform them of your status and well-being. Let them
know how you intend to ride out the storm and when you plan to
check-in again.
Keep cell phones well charged and handy. Also, cell phone chargers
for automobiles can be helpful after the storm. Locate your chargers
and keep them with your cell phone.
In emergencies it is best to remain calm. Stay informed and focused
on the situation at hand. Exercise patience with those you encounter.
Be a Good Samaritan and helpful to others.
If relocating to a nearby shelter or to the home of a family member
or friend, drive with extra caution, especially on secondary roads.
Remember, many bridges and causeways will be closed once higher winds
arrive. Also, if you encounter water covering the road, seek an
alternate route. Always obey official road signs for closures and
detours.
If you are a visitor and still in the area, listen for the name of
the city or town in which you are staying within local news updates.
Be sure you know the name of the county or parish in which it
resides. Pay attention for instructions from local authorities.
Closely monitor NOAA Weather radio or other local news outlets for
official storm information. Be ready to adapt to possible changes to
the forecast.

- Extreme rainfall flooding may prompt numerous evacuations
and rescues.
- Rivers and tributaries may overwhelmingly overflow their
banks in many places with deep moving water. Small streams,
creeks, canals, and ditches may become raging rivers. Flood
control systems and barriers may become stressed.
- Flood waters can enter numerous structures within multiple
communities, some structures becoming uninhabitable or
washed away. Numerous places where flood waters may cover
escape routes. Streets and parking lots become rivers of
raging water with underpasses submerged. Driving conditions
become very dangerous. Numerous road and bridge closures
with some weakened or washed out.
* TORNADO
- LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
- Situation is somewhat favorable for tornadoes
- CURRENT THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Elevated
- The tornado threat has remained nearly steady from the
previous assessment.
- When implementing emergency plans, include a reasonable
threat for isolated tornadoes.
- To be safe, prepare for the potential of limited tornado
impacts.
- Listen for tornado watches and warnings. Be ready to
shelter quickly if a tornado approaches.
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
- The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the
execution of emergency plans during tropical events.
- A few places may experience tornado damage, along with
power and communications disruptions.
- Locations could realize roofs peeled off buildings,
chimneys toppled, mobile homes pushed off foundations or
overturned, large tree tops and branches snapped off,
shallow-rooted trees knocked over, moving vehicles blown
off roads, and small boats pulled from moorings.

609 AM CDT Fri Aug 25 2017
This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of Southeast Texas..
...TROPICAL STORM WARNING IS IN EFFECT TODAY...
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Hurricane Harvey is located in the south central Gulf of Mexico.
Harvey is still strengthening as he moves northwest towards the
middle Texas coast. Periods of scattered showers and thunderstorms
will occur through the day as the outer bands of Harvey come
ashore. All tropical threats exist...county wide tropical storm
winds gusting to near hurricane force along the coast...4 to 6
feet plus feet of storm surge along the Gulf coast...high rainfall
amounts and rates that will likely lead to flooding...and
tornadoes embedded within the outer storm bands of this strong
hurricane.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday
Tropical storm force winds may occur along the Brazoria County
coast line as early as late Friday afternoon and persist through
Saturday afternoon. Gusty...primarily under tropical force
winds...will likely spread inland early Saturday morning and
persist through early Saturday afternoon.
Storm surge heights will range from between 4 to 6 feet along the
Gulf coast...1 to 3 feet around Galveston Bay...above ground level
with rising water levels occurring from as early as late tonight
and persisting through Saturday.
Total rainfall amounts over the next several days will range from
a little over 10 inches to localized near 20 inch amounts that
will induce significant flooding.
Isolated tornadoes will also be possible within Harvey`s outer
thunderstorm bands.
Harvey is forecast to slowly meander across southeastern Texas through
mid week. This slow storm movement increases the probability of a
higher frequency of heavy rainfall episodes that will only exacerbate
areawide flooding.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotters will be needed from today through the weekend.

flooding as a prolonged heavy rain and flash flood threat is
expected to occur. Rainfall rates of 4 inches per hour or more
will lead to flash flooding as rain squalls from Harvey become
more numerous this morning along the coast and then spread
inland tonight and over the weekend. Periods of heavy rainfall
are expected from Harvey through at least Monday morning, and
rainfall totals of 15 to 25 inches and isolated amounts up to 35
